Overview


AmScope T390 Series Phase-Contrast Biological Trinocular Compound Microscope 40X-2500X Magnification with 20W Halogen, Turret Condenser, 3D Mechanical Stage and 1.2MP USB 3.0 C-mount Camera

  • A top choice for veterinarians and clinics, this microscope provides high quality optics and precision mechanics.
  • The 2-layer mechanical stage with low-position controls, and coaxial coarse and fine focus promote an efficient workflow.
  • Halogen lighting reduces eye-strain for prolonged use.
  • Includes a phase-contrast kit for live-cell studies. The kit includes 4 plan-achromatic phase-ring equipped objective lenses and a 5-position turret condenser.
  • The adjustable trinocular photo port allows you to easily mount a camera for real-time monitoring or capturing photos and videos.
  • Monitor and capture photos and videos with the included ultra-sensitive 1.2MP USB 3.0 camera. Professional microscopy software for Windows, Mac, and Linux provide tools for image processing, measuring, and more.

This trinocular phase-contrast microscope is designed for advanced education, research, and clinical applications focusing on live-cell studies. High quality optics and precision mechanics have made this time-tested design a favorite for labs across many industries. Brightfield and phase-contrast optics provide the flexibility needed for both fixed and live cells, fluids, and materials. An easy-to-use turret condenser allows you to quickly switch between phase-contrast and brightfield.

The trinocular head can be customized for each user, with a sliding interpupillary adjuster for varying eye spacing, and diopters for both eyes to fine-tune focus for nearsighted users and for asymmetry. The head can be rotated 360°, and has a 45° incline for viewing while seated or standing. Interchangeable eyepieces allow for an expanded magnification range, or the use of special eyepieces with pointers and measuring reticles. The trinocular photo port provides a dedicated mount for using a camera. The port is height-adjustable to match focus with the eyepieces, and does not require switching when used simultaneously with the eyepieces.

The objective turret provides instant access to 4 magnification levels to easily focus in on minute details from 40X to 1000X. Additional 25X eyepieces expand the maximum magnification to 2500X with 6 unique levels. This covers magnifications needed for studying hair follicles, cells, and bacteria. These high-quality lenses are achromatically corrected to improve resolution and color accuracy.

The 2-layer mechanical stage provides smooth and precise movement for examination of specimen slides. The stage's low-position controls are conveniently placed near the coaxial focus knobs for a streamlined workflow. Examining specimen slides is intuitive and precise for users at any skill level.

The halogen sub-stage lighting provides bright illumination with excellent color rendering. The warm lighting is better suited for prolonged use, causing less eyestrain than LED and fluorescent lighting. The Abbe light condenser has a high 1.25 numerical aperture for oil-immersion, and an iris diaphragm to optimize contrast and depth-of-field. The condenser holder uses rack-and-pinion movement for precise height adjustment.

A phase-contrast kit is included with a 5-position turret condenser and 4 plan-achromatic phase-contrast objective lenses. Phase contrast is used to reveal detail in indistinct objects, such as unstained cells and microorganisms that would otherwise appear invisible. By using a combination of specialized objective lenses and a modified light condenser, these invisible objects can be visualized by manipulating variations in phase. This turret condenser allows you to easily rotate through the brightfield and four phase-contrast settings (10X, 20X, 40X, 100X). Each phase-contrast setting has a centerable annulus for proper alignment. Each of the phase-ring equipped objective lenses has plan-achromatic corrections for improved color and resolution, as well as edge-to-edge sharpness.

Monitor and capture photos and videos with the included 1.2MP USB3.0 camera. With extraordinary sensitivity and high framerates, the MU123-FL provides high-definition imaging for low-light applications, including fluorescence and darkfield. Using a cutting-edge 1.2MP back-illuminated CMOS sensor with an incredible 2040mV sensitivity (1/30s), high gain-levels can be used for highly-responsive realtime video. A 0.37X reduction lens is included for use with 23mm-30.5mm ports to capture more of the microscope's field-of-view. Our professional software for Windows provides a wide assortment of capture and photo-editing functions including color correction, time-lapse capture, image stitching, and a full complement of measuring tools. A lite version of our software is available for Mac and Linux with essential functionality for capturing photos and videos.
